Comment:
add release blockers, split known bugs into these and those which are unlikely to be fixed

  
  [[DebianWheezy|Wheezy]] is frozen and maybe we can just do a status quo release of Debian Edu Wheezy now?!
  
+ == Blockers for a release ==
+ 
+  * confirm installation and getting started procedures in manual are correct and working
+  * update screenhots in manual for wheezy
+   * this depends on artwork
+  * update artwork for wheezy (or decide not to)
+   * artwork should really be updated for wheezy, esp. as gdm was replaced with gdm3, which has no d-e artwork. lightdm (used with desktop-lxde) should get artwork, too. 
+  * mass import feature (ldif and csv) is missing in gosa-plugin-ldapmanager. (DebianBug:698840)
+ * slbackup.php login failure needs to be fixed (DebianBug:700257)
  
  == Known problems ==
+ 
+  * note that the wheezy build uses the debian-edu package source in svn for squeeze.  ie the packages added for wheezy do not make it to the dvd when we start to build dvds. this should be fixed (so that the wheezy build uses the packages from the svn wheezy branch and this needs to happen in build/CD-administrator/ somewhere
+  * LTSP: diskless workstations are now using ldm as default display manager. To get the Kerberos TGT (e.g. for mail), kinit has to be executed in a terminal window (homedir access via sshfs, registering the box in GOsa is not needed). Setting DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER=/path/to/dm via kernel command line, lts.conf or ldap lets a diskless ws come up the old way.
+ 
+ == Known problems, unlikekly to be fixed ==
+ 
+ We should probably mention them in debian-edu-doc and get over them for wheezy...
  
   *  During an Debian Edu installation sometimes (depending on language and moon phase settings) there is a debconf question from dictionaries-common about setting the default dictionary.
    * This is related to DebianBug:566912. It is also related to the old DebianBug:277410.
    * The question can be supressed by preseeding like this: {{{
    dictionaries-common dictionaries-common/default-wordlist Manual symlink setting
  }}}
-  * note that the wheezy build uses the debian-edu package source in svn for squeeze.  ie the packages added for wheezy do not make it to the dvd when we start to build dvds. this should be fixed (so that the wheezy build uses the packages from the svn wheezy branch and this needs to happen in build/CD-administrator/ somewhere

-  * backup system gui: fails to submit correctly entered root password. (DebianBug:700257)
   * if install (dvd or netinst) happens on a box containing more than one NIC, after reboot network interfaces may have a different order. This won't happen if pxe installation is used (once tjener is up and running).  
   * KDE Debian submenu lacks icons (DebianBug:502192).  The menu-xdg maintainer do not want to fix it.  An alternative is to not install menu-xdg at all, removing the Debian submenu from KDE.
